  1. 1. Preliminary Design and Conceptual Analysis of an Electrically Actuated Pintle Injector

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Simone Guietti; [2024]
    Keywords : Pintle injector; space propulsion; space engineering;

    Abstract : ”The Eagle has landed”. With this words, astronaut Neil Armstrong, together with astronaut Edwin ”Buzz” Aldrin, confirmed the safe landing on the Moon of the Apollo11 on July 20th, 1969. This achievement would have never been possible without the engineering behind the construction of the Moon lander. READ MORE

  3. 2. FPGA Based Control of Multiple Electric Machines for Marine Propulsion Systems

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Simon Weideskog; [2024]
    Keywords : FPGA; Field Oriented Control; BLDC; SVPWM; SMO; Electric Drives; Electric Machines; Sliding Mode Observer; Marine Propulsion; Multiple Machines; Boat Motor; Fältorienterad styrning; marin framdrivning; elektriska drivsystem; elmaskiner; flertal maskiner; båtmotor;

    Abstract : This master thesis addresses the control of electric propulsion motors in a marine context. The focus lies mainly on the implementation of field oriented control (FOC) in a field programmable gate array (FPGA). The hypothesis is that FPGAs provide performance advantages over microcontroller-based control solutions by enabling parallel processing. READ MORE

    Abstract : Corrosion has posed a significant challenge within the maritime sector for numerousyears. In the 21st century, bolstering the corrosion resistance of alloys, particularlyaluminum alloys, has become paramount. Aluminum alloys find widespread use inpropulsion systems, boat hulls, and cargo vessels. READ MORE

  6. 5. Evaluating the Performance of Propulsion System Elements in an Aerospace Company

    University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

    Author : David Fredouelle; [2023]
    Keywords : Turbomachinery; injector; test campaign; cryogenic; rocket engine; test bench; cold flow; Turbomaskin; injektor; testkampanj; kryogen; raketmotor; testbänk; kallt flöde;

    Abstract : This paper examines two examples of testing activities of sub-components of a 300kN methalox first-stage rocket engine developed by Pangea Aerospace, namely, theinjectors and the cryogenic pumps. One of the difficulties of these test campaignsis to evaluate the performances of these sub-components without using cryogenicpropellants and in conditions differing from flight conditions. READ MORE
